Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Distinctly nutty, but also with those linseedy Irish flavours. some soft, perfumy, spiciness.
Palate
Toasted almonds, raisin, slightly burnt toffee.
Finish
Delicate, elusive, flavours. Long, soft, soothing.
Comment
All the woods are influential, especially the port in the finish. A dextrous balancing act.

Doug McIvor

Nose
Beautifully scented with honey, sweet apples, pears, bananas and sherry.
Palate
Delicious, malt roundedness, rich fruit and nuttiness peep through the sherry and port structure.
Finish
Lingering sweet fruit salad character and the lightest trace of peat.
Comment
Absolutely charming Bushmills. Expertly composed.
